It's your thing, do what you wanna do.
I can't tell you, who to sock it to.
It's your thing, do what you wanna do.
I can't tell you, who to sock it to.
If you want me to love you, maybe I will.
Believe me woman, it ain't no big deal.
You need love now, just as bad as I do.
Make's me no difference now, who you give your thing to.
It's your thing, do what you wanna do.
I can't tell you, who to sock it to.
It's your thing, do what you wanna do.
I can't tell you, who to sock it to.
[Instrumental]
It's your thing, do what you wanna do.
I can't tell you, who to sock it to.
It's your thing, do what you wanna do.
I can't tell you, who to sock it to.
I'm not trying to run your life,I know you wanna do what's right.
Give your love now, to whoever you choose.
How can you love, with the stuff you use now.
It's your thing, do what you wanna do.
I can't tell you, who to sock it to.
It's your thing, do what you wanna do.
I can't tell you, who to sock it to.
It's your thing, do what you wanna do.
I can't tell you, who to sock it to.
It's your thing, do what you wanna do.
I can't tell you, who to sock it to.
Deals with: Self-reliance and free thought
The lyrics continuously repeats "It's your thing, do what you wanna do," which emphasizes the self-reliance and free thought, in general freedom. The part about "I can't tell you, who to sock it to," can be understood as "I won't babysit you." Also, "I know you wanna do what's right" encourages self-reliance, as the artist is trying to encourage the listener or the subject of this song to "belive in yourself." The repetitive idea about free thought and self-reliance is mentioned in this song, which makes it relate to the theme transcedentalism!
